Inventioneering

November 26, 2025  •  EPISODE 288

What does it really take to bring ideas to life? In this episode, Dr. Roger Billings takes us deeper into the world of inventioneering—the dynamic mix of creativity, engineering, and problem-solving that turns imagination into real-world inventions. He shows how inventioneering isn’t limited to tech or science—it can be applied to any creative or practical project. If you’ve ever had a spark of inspiration, this episode will help you learn how to shape it into something meaningful and impactful.

    Rodger billings! You should maybe a class about teaching people how to make certaint sciency things probably called “the inventors class” I think everyone would love that, and people could share what they made!! just make sure it’s safe! 😀 (idea from Arielle from Arlington Texas)

    I think a class on converting the imperial measurement system to the metric measurement system would be great for international students or students who would like to attend international schools.
